Yoga Teaching is Yoga Learning
Coming up from November 2nd to the 9th, Jo will be training at Duke Integrative Medicine.
She’ll be participating in a professional program on Integrative Yoga. Having already taken a course with Carol Krucoff and Kimberly Carson–Integrating Ancient Wisdom with Modern Medicine–Jo is super excited about this one.
Integrative medicine–not to be confused with alternative medicine–is an approach to health and wellness that focuses treatments on a person’s whole being rather than any one symptom or illness. Integrative medicine utilizes a range of healing modalities and medical disciplines to find the underlying cause of illness, rather than treating isolated symptoms. Understanding the role that yoga can play in an overall plan for personalized care is key to helping students with their yoga practice. Jo will be learning new strategies for modifying yoga poses to suit the specific circumstances of students.
